I HAD NO BRAKE LIGHTS AND THE SEAT BELT INDICATOR LIGHT KEPT DINGING AS WELL AS THE TIRE LOW INDICATOR. IT WAS ALL BECAUSE OF THE TOTAL INTERGRATED POWER MODULE. IT WAS ON BACK ORDER FOR FIVE WEEKS. IT COST 750.00 FOR JUST THE PART. I FEEL CHRYSLER DOESN'T RECALL THESE EVEN AFTER 1000S OF COMPLAINTS BECAUSE IT IS TO COSTLY. THEY ARE MAKING MONEY ON THE PART ALONE. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER CHRYSLER OVER THEM NOT DOING THE RIGHT THING. I COULD'VE BEEN REAR ENDED OVER THIS. IT COST ME 995 JUST TO GET THE TIPM PUT IN. I STILL HAVEN'T FIXED THE SEAT BELT DINGING OR THE LOW TIRE DINGING YET. HATE TO SEE HOW MUCH THAT WILL COST. SOMEBODY NEEDS TO MAKE CHRYSLER DO THE RIGHT THING AND ISSUE A RECALL. SAFETY BEFORE ANYTHING. *TR

IN DECEMBER OF 2011 I TOOK MY CAR INTO MOSS BROS. CHRYSLER OF SAN BERNARDINO DUE TO THE AIR BAG LIGHT FOR THE DRIVERS SEAT GOING ON AND OFF. THEY CHECKED THE PROBLEM OUT AND DETERMINED THAT WHEN THE DRIVERS SEAT IS ALL THE WAY BACK THAT THE SEAT ADJUSTER SPRING IS BROKE AND DAMAGED WIRING TO THE SEAT TRACK SENSOR. RECOMMENDED TO REPLACE SEAT ADJUSTER AND WIRING. THESE ARE THE WORDS USED BY THE MECHANIC AS TO WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. CHRYSLER WAS CONTACTED WITH A REQUEST TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM AT THEIR COST, AND THAT WAS DENIED. I HAVE MADE CONTACT WITH CHRYSLER CONCERNING THIS MATTER AND WAS TOLD THE SAME THING, THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM REPAIRED. OVER THE LAST TWO YEARS THE PROBLEM HAS COME AND GONE. NOW THE PROBLEM HAS COME BACK UP AGAIN. I AM IN FEAR OF THE AIR BAG GOING OFF ON ITS OWN OR NOT OPERATING PROPERLY IF INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. I AM TIRED OF PURSUING THIS MATTER WITH CHRYSLER AND FINALLY JUST GAVE UP. AFTER TALKING TO A MECHANIC FRIEND OF MINE HE TOLD ME TO CONTACT YOUR AGENCY TO SEE IF YOU CAN GET ME SOME SORT OF SOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM. RIGHT NOW I AM HAVING THE AIR BAG LIGHT PROBLEM DAILY AND AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT MY SAFETY AND OTHERS THAT MAY BE IN MY CAR WITH ME. I DO HOPE THAT YOU ARE ABLE TO HELP ME GET THIS PROBLEM TAKEN CARE OF. I CAN NOT AFFORD TO PAY THE $1000.00 PLUS DOLLARS THAT I WAS QUOTED FOR THE REPAIR. I AM A DISABLED SENIOR CITIZEN LIVING ON JUST MY SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY AND DO HOPE THAT YOU WILL BE ABLE TO RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM FOR ME. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME CONCERNING THIS MATTER AND I DO LOOK FORWARD TO HEARING FROM YOU. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

I HAVE A 2007 CHRYSLER SEBRING LIMITED AND WHEN I TAKE MY KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION AND OPEN THE DRIVERS DOOR IT STILL INDICATES ON THE DASH THAT THE KEY IS IN THE IGNITION, THEREFORE CAUSING MY KEY FOBS TO NOT WORK AS WELL. I CANNOT SET MY ALARM ON MY CAR BECAUSE THE KEY FOBS ARE NOT WORKING AND I HAVE TO SIT IN THE CAR FOR 30-60 SECONDS WAITING FOR THE DASH TO STOP INDICATING THE KEY IS STILL IN THE IGNITION SO I CAN LOCK THE CAR DOORS. IT IS A BIG HASSLE AND INCONVENIENCE. *TR

TRAVELING AT 60 MPH THE ETC LIGHT BEGINS TO FLASH AND THE VEHICLE WILL NOT ACCELERATE, ALTHOUGH RPMS INCREASE SIGNIFICANTLY. THIS HAPPENS MANY TIMES GOING DOWNHILL. DEALER WAS NEVER ABLE TO REPAIR. RESETS IF CAR IS RESTARTED, BUT THIS IS NOT SAFE TRAVELING AT 60MPH ON THE HIGHWAY IN TRAFFIC. *TR
